Fuel bills have been more expensive lately, but this might be short-lived.
GasBuddy shows that gasoline gained around $0.11 last week, marking the third straight week of increases for gas. Diesel is up nearly $0.04 to $3.59 per gallon.
Energy analysts say the weekly gains are not likely to stay, and they cite concerns around the economy and recent production increases. Oil prices are currently near levels they saw during the pandemic.
